i want to know if you should do any work with your arms to extend them or just keep them loose and let the torque and rotation move your hands to the ball

..I agree that rotation takes the hands to ball and should be loose as you load but as the swing begins it takes flex in the hand and arm muscles to keep connection and handle the force that will travel through them into the bat from rotation.
